She didn't inform them at the earliest opportunity to gain financial gain, I'm surprised she isn't being investigated for fraud.

You may kow a thing or two about fraud Tincy, that ive no doubt of but when you are responsible for feeding more than just your own selfish mouth, then come back and judge eh.

My take on this is that I think as a country we do really well in topping up salaries to ensure people who work like the OP can live properly.

 

It encourages people to work, but also gives a level of support to families.

 

But it has to stop somewhere, it is known when it stops and responsibility needs to be taken to plan accordingly. 

 

I knew I would be paying board a year before I left school, not several months after when the wheels are falling off.

 

i sympathise as the OP is working and bringing up a family, but I don’t agree that people should blame governments (whoever is in charge), when in this case it’s a question of bad planning ( well no planning atall).

 

The rules are known, it should have been on the OP mind a good year or so beforehand, and we shouldn’t blame government when people bury their heads in the sand.

Come back when you've grown up and experienced just a little bit of hardship in your lives.  It will come.  In the meantime, keep your unhelpful rude and frankly nasty opinions to yourselves.

How exactly do you plan for being on the sick and not being able to afford food?

By not committing benefit fraud for a start.

How would that of helped? All that has been done is she has taken money early because she needed it at the time to make ends meet. If she hadn’t of done she would have reached crisis sooner. 

I asked how do you solve the problem, not move it.

Rather than not declaring and with holding information, hence committing benefit fraud, i'm sure the OP has family and friends that could of helped her out, before she reached "crisis point" 

 

And possibly not have so much time off on the sick.

If he's anything like me it'll be a combination of prune juice and anal beads.

Guys guys guys. The op has came to us with a problem.

Make no mistake, She is in the wrong, whether or not what's "right" is fair.

I think the op would admit to that.

Absolutely. But what this thread has also shown (not that people really needed reminding seeing as we see so much of it) is that there are people do lack an iota of empathy and would rather glory in the misery of this individual rather than offering help to actually solve the problem.

@Wymeswold fox I can see my last post confused you, it's a form of deep cleanse:

 

Step 1: Insert beads.

Step 2: Consume a litre of prune juice.

Step 3: Wait a couple of hours, let yourself get proper backed up, if you're not bursting you've not left it long enough.

Step 4: Stand in an empty paddling pool and kindly ask a 3rd party to yank the ripcord.

 

I recommend doing this at least once a month, haven't had a cold in years.

For it to be fraud there needs to be intent or wilful deception, if the OP has lied at any time to profit then fair enough. But we don't know that, there are lots of people in this world and not all of them are good with money, or forms, or the ins and outs of the benefit system. So, how about you show an ounce of humanity and we give them the benefit of the doubt, that this was indeed an error / oversight on their part.

The OP knew benefits would stop when the child would become  an adult and didn’t do anything to plan for these financial changes.

 

As an example, they didn’t ask for board off the son, and they were surprised when the authorities came knocking.

 

As I said, there is a level of sympathy as they are working and contributing to society, but come on, you know what your financial situation is, you know benefits will be stopping, so at least a year or two before you need to find a solution.

 

It is as if it was all a big surprise that benefits stopped.

The authorities didn’t come knocking and board off the son would not cover a full salary whilst on the sick. As I understand it, it wasn’t about not having a solution in place for his benefits being stopped, it was because she had to take time off work for health reasons and chose not to surrender information that could lead to her having even less money. Now because of this choice instead of accepting a small decrease to payback the shortfall, which I doubt amounts to any huge amounts, she faces the indignity of having no benefits and presumably could fall behind with major bills.

I doubt you have ever had to make difficult choices on how to provide for others as you seem to have no empathy for how this situation could even occur, but putting all that aside, a fellow Leicester fan has asked for advice for a crisis situation and you and others have decided this is the right time to aim a kick. If you can’t help or offer sympathy, why don’t you just keep your vile opinions to yourself?
